Slow Poison

Absolute darkness is waiting to meet you in my dreams
It’s the moonlight smoothing, over and over, the hollow you left behind
I negotiate with dust in the cracks of the wall
Every grain owes me a kiss that never came
The end of the road is you handing me half a cup of spring gone cold
Pain is an ember that won’t be scattered
Flickering in my pulse, a dying light that haunts my grave
I fold the past in half and burn it to ash
In the embers stand countless versions of us, waving
Only you can turn all my sanity into drowning
I drink you in, this slow-brewed poison
Night wind as the catalyst, my whole life as the cup
You are fresh snow on the window pane, shattering dawn and dusk as it melts
The forked path in my palm, winding through half a lifetime of rings
Let me seal a pact with silence, to draw a shield that can never be whole
Every stroke builds a city that traps me alone
Those warm old days curl into faded letters
Longing lingers like leftover ink, seeping back in the dead of night
Inside my memory, I tend a spring that will never bear fruit
Guarding the hollow trace of wind you left behind
You are a blade with a sweet edge, a needle driven deep in my heart
The endless corridor I can never walk out of, in all my life
You are the dust-covered needle in my heartbeat
A stranded leviathan in tattered pages of time
Let me use my remaining years as a brush, to trace these flawed rings
Every layer carved with a root that never heals
When reunion becomes nothing but folded dusk and dawn
This poison seeps into every inch of my left-behind soul
Here I end
I walk into the longest endless night
Becoming your quietest, unspoken mark
No words, no trace
You are the page forever closed in history
I am the fingerprint dried and brittle between its sheets
